Cruise Control Vacuum
 
I've been searching and haven't found where I can connect the vacuum hoses to the cruise control. Its for a GSL-SE 13B engine. All I've found was for a 12A engine. Can someone take pix or link a diagram or something that will allow me to use my cruise control on the way to work tomorrow? :)

Thanks!

HM. have you modified your rats nest or something? you should be able to T it into the closest vacumn line, which goes into these 2 little weird things on the firewall....

bizarro 11-17-03 09:23 AM

thanx for the response iotus...

i had to redo that wierd thing and went by the haynes manual, thing is the haynes manual doesn't show the cruise control, so i guess i bypassed it by accident? if i did, which connection goes where? there are 2 vacuums that come out of the bottom of the wierd things. do you know of a diagram somewhere or can you draw one up real quick?

love your tail lights btw...hope your engine work goes good.

isnt there a vacuum routing diagram on the hood?

bizarro 11-17-03 11:10 AM

yes...but no indication of where the cruise control goes :(

ioTus 11-17-03 11:40 AM

I'm tryign to remember what i did.

It seems that there was a 3rd T in that line w/ the weird things, going up to the cruise control.

Hey you could try it, and if it doesnt run, disable it by un-plugging it....

sorry i cant be of more help. let me perouse through my pics real quick...

ioTus 11-17-03 11:44 AM

damn, here is an OLLLLLD pic back when i had the cruise control.

I cant see where it goes into! maybe you could guess from this pic:

just PM'ed you about the vacuum hoses...also what is that line in red?

nope...can't see where it goes...can't even guess either... :( ...i'll just have to try to find a local RX7 with cruise control. its going to be tough...dang...

also, what paint did you use on the RE-EGI ? i would like to do that to mine, 'cept in either white or red.

thanks though...i appreciate your help anyways...

Hold on Bizarro, I'll have a look at my engine bay and tell you where it goes.

brownmound 11-17-03 05:21 PM

Look for a "double T"my cruise fell apart and caused a high idle. i traced it to a brittle broken "double t" connector near the cruise vac unit, passenger side near the firewall. there are a couple of solenoid looking things on the firewall and i believe they are connected to the same double t.

Right on.

ioTus 11-17-03 06:22 PM

Yeah, brownmound, thast what i've been trying to tell him.

Just tap it into that line, just get a T, stock it goes into a double T or something.

Just tap it in there. somewhere, anywhere, doesnt really matter

Try this: My website! :D

bizarro 11-17-03 07:27 PM

i found a double t but its connected...i did find a t connector where one end is capped off...i'll connect the cruise control to that but it will leave me with an extra hose...

i'll connect and take the car for a quick drive. if it still doesn't work i'm going to draw a diagram of what i have cuz its hard to take pix in there...

bizarro 11-17-03 09:14 PM

OKAY!!!! connected the one vacuum from the cruise control and hooked it up to the capped t connector...and now my cruise control works!!! thanks guys for all your help...don't know why i have a spare t connector and spare hose now, but it all looks good now...keep an eye out on my next issue about my brakes... :)
